You might be interested in my newest patch to add backlight control to
sysctl. It's probably better for everyone (imo) that backlight control
is integrated into the driver and accessible via sysctl, so it works the
same way for everyone.

Look for the subject "Re: Questions on adding backlight support for the
i915 driver" from me and you'll find the patch. I am curious if it works
for you.
